This is often called externalities. I don't mind this argument, after all, leftism is based on Economics. Marx was an economist. And modern economics sweeps over this to propogandize students about adam smith and grt them to argue over modrrn neoliberal issues. However, we all stand to gain the farther left we go - the only of those who don't are the owner class who squeezes us dry.
